Jo Kornegay

Jo runs a tough course, but can be a great mentor if you stay engaged. The workload is heavy, but unstuck study proved invaluable for exam prep. Avoid this if you prioritize your GPA over learning.

Least favourite prof I've had. Goes on tangents that we don't even cover all the material. Lectures are boring and there are so many readings. Tough grader and expects us to memorize so much of the readings.. not really accessible outside of class either. Did not enjoy her at all.

I loved Jo as a prof! She's really passionate and you can tell she knows her stuff. Lots of good feedback on essays and tests that's super helpful for the exam. She gives super detailed outlines for every assignment. If you've done the readings and attended her lectures you'll do well!

Never again.

She consistently goes on tangents and will allow for 0 personal input or view in class, avoid at all cost.

Horrible.

Had a course with her last year, how she has a 3/5 is beyond me, without a doubt the worst prof I've had. While being a tough grader is not bad, not sticking to your own teaching schedule, going on random tangents during class, and in general failing to properly prepare students for your very heavy projects is horrible.

She is so sweet and understanding, but, the course feels unstructured. She is passionate and goes into deep detail for the lectures, but they are so dense that she often does not end up finishing all the slides by the end. There are a lot of readings each week and you need to memorize essentially each and every detail for the midterm and exam.

A sweet and engaging lecturer, but the course has too much content (5ish readings/week, 12+ people you need to know everything about for each exam). They want a specific essay with citations from memory within 50 mins. Students either recieved a B or an F. Professors would recieve better quality work if the course was structured differently.

One of the sweetest teachers I've ever had. She is passionate about what she teaches and it really shows. She knows what she is talking about which makes the material. way easier to understand. As long as people attend the lectures and read the material, they should be fine in a class with Roberta.
